The Stephen S. DeKnight-directed sequeltakes place ten years after the first film, as Pan Pacific Defense Corps (PPDC) works to recruit the “best” minds to train pilot Jaegers to defend the world in the wake of an inevitable Kaiju return.

In addition to Boyega, Scott Eastwood, Cailee Spaeny, and Jing Tian join the cast as new recruits, while Charlie Day, Burn Gorman, and Rinko Kikuchi all reprise their roles from the 2013 film. Unfortunately, Charlie Hunnam was unable to return as the heroic Raleigh Becket.

"It’s been ten years since The Battle of the Breach, and the oceans are still, but restless. Vindicated by the victory at the Breach, the Jaeger program has evolved into the most powerful global defense force in human history. The PPDC now calls upon the best and brightest to rise up and become the next generation of heroes. When the Kaiju threat returns, we will be ready."

Umm, sign us up!

We seriously can’t wait to see the new pilots kick Kaiju ass in Pacific Rim: Uprising when it hits theaters in February 2018.
